2. WWF Update: Wrestlemania V update where Gene Okerlund says that a number of matches have been signed and confirms that the main event will be Randy Savage defending the World title against Hulk Hogan.
3. Brain Busters (w/ Bobby Heenan) vs Rockers - bout never gets underway as the teams start brawling as soon as the Rockers enter the ring
4. WWF Wipeout: Mr Perfect
5. Ted Dibiase & Virgil go to check on the progress being made on his belt.  Dibiase’s not happy and he wants more diamonds and more gold.
6. Bad News Brown vs Louie Spiccoli
7. Koko B. Ware vs Ross Browner
8. INT: Randy Savage - says he should’ve known from the beginning that Hulk Hogan was after his manager due to the lust in his eyes.  He points to examples of Hogan stealing his spotlight because he was jealous of him and proof that Hogan was after Elizabeth.  He says that at Wrestlemania V he’s taking nothing of his, he’s not taking his manager as she’ll be in his corner and he’s not taking his World title.  Good interview.
9. Jim Duggan vs Darrell Peterson (Maxx Payne)
10. Brother Love show w/ Rick Rude & Bobby Heenan - Love congratulates Rude for winning the ‘Super Posedown’ and says that at Wrestlemania he’ll defeat the Ultimate Warrior to become the Intercontinental champion.
11. Powers of Pain (w/ Mr Fuji) vs Ricky Ataki & Frankie Valdez
12. INT: Hulk Hogan - where he responds to Randy Savage’s interview from earlier and says how he edited the footage to suit his means.  He explains and answers Savage’s points and shows the full unedited footage.  He goes on to say that the way he ruined everything, the way he put Elizabeth between them and the way he tore her heart out, there’s no way she’ll be in his corner at Wrestlemania and by the time this thing is over, he’s not going to be champion.  Great stuff.
13. Dino Bravo (w/ Frenchy Martin) vs Mark Ming
14. INT: Red Rooster
15. INT: Mr Perfect
